i think they realize that obama hald alowe bam obama had call the cards to play on the fiscal cliff. a think tank run by the former president says if we got economic growth to 4% we could balance the budget. then you get into technology, innovation and energy, and fracking. i mean, for example, california alone has $3 trillion worth of oil in its offshore areas between the coast and where the federal waters take over. california's own waters and guess what they are not using it because they stopped them that. would balance the government in california a hundred times over and yet oddly enough the obama administration and the epa are not interested. jon: we'll continue that discussion during the break. we'll be right back. but their shakes aren't always made for people with diabetes. that's why there's glucerna hunger smart shakes. they have carb steady, with carbs that digest slowly to help minimize blood sugar spikes. and they have six grams of sugars. with fifteen grams of protein to help manage hunger... look who's getting smart about her weight.
